I only ever saw the pilot. I had one friend who said it got a lot better, but I never bothered to get back into the show. AMC will recover, I’ve heard really good things about “Halt and Catch Fire”.

Thank you, Tom!

There’s nothing ironic about that.

The greatest sin of the show was to waste the talents of so many fine actors.

Low Winter Sun was one of the worst shows I’ve ever seen on tv network or cable.The plot was predictable and the settings were much too dark. Filmed in Detroit, it did little to improve that city’s image. AMC tossed a rotten bone and viewers didn’t bite.

TWD is it

TV man the Talking Dead cannot move to another night. It’s there to re-hash , unstressed and relax and just let the viewers catch their breath in a well lit friendly safe looking environment. You could move Sunday night football to MNF so you could just pick the better game..

TWD is it

AMC’s new SPY ring show about the American Revolution looks great. Cant wait. Though the Honey Boo world I live in, well maybe they didnt know the USA actually fought for it’s freedom to allow 48% of it’s people ( notice non use of citizen here ) to not pay and taxes a year. Oh well.

Well, no surprise there.The show is not terrible but to think about it, it’s the worst AMC has done so far. Mad Men/Breaking Bad are classics. Walking Dead and Rubicon is great too,The Killing had its days and Hell On Wheels is improving a lot, so this show is kinda left out.

They also have 2 new shows coming next year, plus 3 pilots, so this seems inevitable.

Not in the least shocking.. at think this was their lowest series ever.. I watched one episode and that was it.. I just was not feeling it…

Never heard of it – who cares??

Both AMC & IFC suck the big one – these used to great cable channels – now they are nothing but commercial-driven crus channels – wish I could block them from my HD lineup and not have to pay for them!!

I’d rather watch Turner Classic Movies (TCM) over ANY of the crap these channels spew out!!

Agree with you, TWD. Talking Dead was built as an inexpensive compliment to Walking Dead and it was a stroke of genius. Pulling in better numbers than any series that can be put in its spot. You might put a new show there as a one-timer, just for exposure, which AMC might have done with Low Winter Sun, but that’s it.

Dan

@Walt – Well I google “AMC cancels Low Winter Sun” almost every day so I guess not, but they sure took their sweet time axing it. The series plunged to lower then a million viewers after Breaking Bad’s finale and AMC has other original new series in development for next year as well as a Walking Dead companion series and Better Call Saul and Mad Men’s Final season and upcoming Hell on Wheels and Walking Dead seasons. Even The Killing got another seaosn on Netflix.

The series just wasnt good. It wasnt a horrible show but it tried so hard to be a standout AMC series like Breaking Bad, Mad Men or Walking Dead, however it was very bland. With LWS cancelled I think every cable bubble drama has now been either cancelled or renewed.

Thank goodness. I never watched an episode, but I fast-forwarded through commercials for this countless times while watching other great stuff on AMC.

It was an okay show, but the finale was garbage. The only reason to watch this show, is Mark Strong, who did put on an amazing performance in this show.

Ekras

Did they even need to announce this?

Mumbo

This show didn’t even try to outrun the cancellation bear. Basically walked right into his mouth.

AO

I stuck it out in the hopes it would get better but instead it just kept getting worse, I wasn’t going to watch a S2 regardless, but I’m glad that another show will get a chance now in it’s place.

Ekras

I heard they are going to call the BluRay “Low Winter Ratings”…..

I wanted to like this show, but the overload of pre-air ads drove me insane. “people keep talking about morality like its black and white”. I couldn’t reach for the mute button quick enough after seeing it 500 times before one show aired. Trying to watch it led me to tears of boredom. The cinematography was so dark, I needed night vision goggles just to watch it.
